Kudos to BobD.
In this thread, his answers are 1. correct (at least I am convinced so) 2. crystal clear, 3. patient, 4. polite, and 5. enlightening. If you read through this thread, you will see that there are things about e=mc2 that I had assumed (based on observations and some things we all "know", such as the "fact" that light does not weight anything -- after all, photons have no rest mass, right?) that were incorrect.
There are those of you who know this stuff inside out, and might find that my posts in this thread make your eyes roll. Posters less tactful that BobD might have started out posts like his to me, with something like this: "Ken, if you were not so obstinate and apparently incapable of reading, assimilating material, and then making logical inferences, then you would realize that..."
But instead, BobD "kept on keeping on" politely and patiently, until I understood the errors of my thinking, and I gained some knowledge and perspective in the process. For those of you who do not know this stuff inside out, you can learn something from his posts (as well as those from others who have the good sense to agree with him).
That's what CR4 is all about, and BobD exemplifies the respect for both science and people that sets CR4 apart from the average forum.
(BTW there is no official "citizen of the week at CR4" -- but maybe there should be?)
